They already know linux is a joke...they aren't suprised at what I say.

The joke is on MS, Apple and fanboys like you.


I think both are viable OS's. Whatever meets your needs...


I bet you believed Bush et al when they said Iraq has WMD and that the
USA doesn't use torture. You're brainwashed by the MS FUD regarding
Linux and you aren't a very pretty picture as a result.

Liberalism is becoming less and less popular today. I guess people finally see that preaching tolerance whilst practicing just the opposite is obnoxious, counter productive, and, let's just say it, ugly and petty.


Politics ?
Boring.

Always changing the topic, yes ?

Yeah...I'm brainwashed into using something that works (Windows) !

That's what linux is ... a non-working pos OS that is about revenge
against MS, not about a consumer friendly, usable OS.



Yes, I know that I'm replying to both posts here. Saves time and effort, and although you both would appear to be 'opposites', the truth is that you both are very similar in that you think 'your way' is the only way. There is room for both OS's. People choose what they need. What I don't understand is why Vista haters spend so much time in a Vista NG. There is a psychology behind that that we won't get into here.

That said, I love Vista. I have it running on 3 of my machines here and have zero problems. My XP machines are used as servers and workhorses for CPU intensive tasking. I understand that for many there have been a multitude of issues (many also say that SP1 has addressed most concerns), but I see none of those here (I do, however, build my own machines, ergo quality HW and no bloatware).
